Scientific Conferences

The SUMMA Foundation first sponsored the Nuclear EMP (NEM) conference in 1973 which then became a biennial conference in 1978. In 1994 the conference was held in Europe (Bordeaux, France) and was named EUROEM. In 1996 the conference returned to North America and changed its name from NEM to AMEREM. In 2015 this conference was held in Asia (Jeju, Korea) and was named ASIAEM. In 2022, following the COVID pandemic, the conference was held in Abu Dhabi, UAE and was named GLOBALEM. All subsequent conferences will be named GLOBALEM with GLOBALEM 2024 to be held in Austin, TX, USA, July 14-19, 2024, hosted by ETS-Lindgren.
